Home Pest Control Spray with D-Limonene | All-Natural Food Grade Orange Peel Oil for Bugs, Ants, Roaches, Fleas, Palmettos and Silverfish - 32oz

Absolutely fantastic product. I was struggling with stinkbugs popping up in the attic I live in. I live with 4 cats, so finding something that is an effective deterrent/bug killer and non-toxic to them was a headache. This gives me the best of both worlds, and the citrus smell is just heavenly. I haven't seen a single stink bug since Ive been using this regularly. It might seem like a lot, price-wise, for just one spray bottle. But it's super concentrated and worth it. I wish I knew about this sooner! Would have saved me so much trouble and headache!

THE SKINNY: • effectively kills and deters • provides peace of mind and worry-free usage • long-lasting EXTENDED REVIEW: I actually learned of Orange Guard in a conversation I had when I had the opportunity to meet the owner and creator of Orange Guard as he and his family live in my small town. I wasn’t necessarily in the market for a big spray, but after asking what he did for a living, I later went online and read more about the product. Though I’ve since purchased it online, I initially bought OG at a local hardware store after discovering I had a small stream of ants underneath my kitchen sink. USAGE: Normally, rather than attempting to kill ants by smothering my house with product, I prefer vacuuming up all visible ants and using a spray to create a sort of seal or deterrent near and around key entrance points. That way I’m neither breathing in or smelling copious amounts of chemicals. With Orange Guard, I don’t have to be nearly as scrutinizing over how much product I’m spraying as it’s both entirely natural and non-toxic. I still use the vacuum method to limit how much spray I’m using, but only bc it’s still got a pretty pungent smell. SMELL: The first thing you’ll notice with OG is in fact the smell... it’s a VERY concentrated citrus smell. Though it doesn’t smell “bad” (in fact I kind of like the way it smells), even the best smells can be overwhelming in large doses (think of that guy at the club who felt he needed 10 sprays of Drakkar Noir... nauseating!). Plus, it’s is rather acidic and such a concentrated amount can find its way to the back of your throat or deep within your nostrils, so no need to overdo it! Perhaps the worst invention was when popular brands of the poisonous alternative started adding scents to their products — I can’t think of a more dangerous and disregarding practice than attempting to mask something harmful with something pleasant, effectively causing people to spray and breathe high amounts of poison bc it no longer smelled of poison. EFFECTIVENESS: If we’re being entirely honest, OG is not as effective as it’s chemical-based alternatives. Like nearly all nature-based products — from cleaning supplies to detergents to medicine— custom-designed chemicals are hard to compete against. I’ve found the chemical-based products work FASTER, LONGER, and are ultimately more EFFECTIVE at both killing and deterring. HOWEVER... Orange Guard is still a highly effective product and while not necessarily the most capable, it absolutely gets the job down. But when you take into consideration the fact you’re not filling your home, and ultimately your LUNGS and the lungs of your loved ones, with harmful, probably cancer-causing toxins, it’s a no-brainer. I’d gladly take a product that’s roughly 85% as capable but 100% safer and healthier. Because ultimately all we’re really talking about are ants. And while admittedly annoying, I’m not ready to believe they’re so annoying as to justify willingly bringing poison into your home, your floors, your cabinets, and your bodies!

Smells lemony and not chemical-ish at all. It works very well to kill and stop ants immediately but only lasts for a few days to a week. I will say this summer was extremely bad with the ants so maybe it isn’t as fair to this product in terms of the few days to a week. I do like its ability to work right away so I have bought multiple and will keep buying.

This stuff works really well to deter ants, although there are some drawbacks. The spray DOES work to deter black ants away from their trails. They disappeared from my infested kitchen after I sprayed their trails. However, this isn't a permanent deterrent. You have to reapply the spray after 2-3 days and continue to keep the infested area pristine to prevent recurrence of ants. The drawbacks are mild: the spray leaves a sticky residue and it has a very loud orange smell. However, the smell is fairly pleasant especially after opening a window for ventilation. It's really just a super strong orange scent. Could definitely be worse, and it fades after 2-3 hours. I have a cat and spray around the cat food area. The spray's scent and sticky residue do not harm my cat, which was very important to me. In sum: although this product has a couple drawbacks, it is an EXCELLENT temporary ant deterrent that has given me peace of mind. I am relieved and grateful that I don't have to break the first precept in order to eliminate the ants from my kitchen. Update April 11, 2023: I haven't seen a single ant since I wrote this review. I've only reapplied the spray twice since I last wrote this review. Seriously, this stuff is fantastic as long as you make the effort to keep the formerly-infested area free of crumbs! Update May 25, 2023: I have not seen a single ant in my kitchen ever since I first wrote this review over a month ago, and I haven't had to reapply the spray since April. This stuff is the real deal and it WORKS. Update July 27, 2023: Still no ants in my kitchen and I haven't reapplied since April. This stuff is amazing!!

Great stuff! Not affecting people or food but wipes out ants! Recommended to me on NextDoor. Smells like orange; not 'chemical'. Great fast delivery; in a plastic bag and a cardboard insulated box

For the 2nd purchase, the bottle did not come with a spray head! For the 1st purchase, it did come with a spray head, but the spray head stopped working after a while. Otherwise, it is a good product.

Works great to keep carpenter bees away from my kids swingset!

Bought this product believing that it was a better organic alternative to get rid of the ants in my vegetable garden. I read reviews from people saying that it works and thought I should give it a try. Well, I received my order and proceeded to the vegetable garden to remove the ants! The ant mound was not very large and was in a corner of my raised box bed. I first sprayed around the mound. Then I poked into the mound to get the ants moving and to open up to reveal the eggs and nest. I sprayed the ants down and made sure to spray into the mound. Waited over 10 minutes and went back to check. The ants were just running around rebuilding their mound and moving the eggs. They acted as if nothing had been sprayed on them! I went ahead and sprayed a little more and decided to check again in the morning as it was getting dark and I could not see well. The next morning I went back to check and discovered that the ants had rebuilt their mound. I found no dead ants anywhere! Could not figure out why? I read the instructions. Decided to do a test and caught some of the ants and placed them into a clear container so I could watch them. Sprayed some of the Orange Guard on the ants and waited. After 24 hours the ants were still alive running around as if I had done nothing! Can't understand what went wrong? I ended up retreating the mound with the remainder of the spray. After another 24 hours nothing had changed except that the area smelt nice with the orange scent. Ants were alive and living well with a fresh scent. They did not seem to be bothered at all by the Orange Guard and in fact they enlarged their mound. I believe that I wasted my money and my time. Would not try again! For those who say it works please tell me what I did wrong and why the ants in the container were not affected by the direct spray saturation for over 24 hours? If it truly works then those ants should have died!

I was very satisfied with this product, so I’d like to use it again.
